Summary

I am a musician and it is my current job, however I have a year and a few months at home after touring around the world. I love to keep myself busy, and the thought of Tractor Supply Co would be an incredible company to work for while I am home! I have experience working in the food industry and working with customers, while operating and maintaining heaving machinery while on the food truck. While on the food truck I would work the register and also cook and clean my work space constantly. Before that I helped my father with landscaping and he taught me how to use a forklift and skid steer at a young age. This secured my job working as a mulcher and landscaper operating heavy machinery. While on the work site, I was safe but efficient at my job and would securely transporting the vehicles back to our head quarters. Im motivated and excited to work with customers as well as operate machinery. Also clean and do some heavy lifting whenever you need. Thank you so much for taking the time to read my resume!
